Invent a name!

You're the expecting parents of a baby boy and you love the name Aiden, but it's just too common! Solution: "invent" a name by changing a consonant sound! Result: Braiden, Zaiden, Jaiden, Raiden, etc.

What other names can we do this with? Disregard the fact that many of the names we'll likely come up with are names in their own right with their own stories and histories that just rank low on the charts. Pretend you're a "mainstream" parent rather than a NE.

Rules: Look at the familiar name provided by the previous poster and change one consonant sound to create a new name you could plausibly use, then provide a new name for the next poster! Any ONE consonant or consonant sound (br, gl, etc.) can be changed anywhere in the name - rhyming isn't necessary.

dorit, I'm reading it as one consonant sound, so we can't replace consonant clusters like the "gn" in "Agnes" that aren't "blended" together, but we can replace consonant clusters (or replace with consonant clusters) that work as a "unit" like the "th" in "Timothy." I'm not sure about cases like the "dg" in "Bridget." It's not exactly a "unit," but they are kind of blending together to make a different sound.
